For Sale!

So this past weekend, our house was finally listed on the market!  Blake and I have spent the past three weeks working our tails off trying to get everything "market ready".  We had the remainder of our foundation done (which is a huge and costly MESS!), we put in a new toilet, new kitchen faucet, and repaired cracks and touched up paint.  Not to mention that we had to CLEAN, CLEAN, CLEAN!  I reorganized closets, and got rid of many things and packed up many things for the storage unit.  It was exhausting!

BUT, the final product looks pretty good if you ask me!  One perk to having your house on the market is you come home to a clean house every day (because I am forced to leave it clean every morning)!  Never in my life, have I made my bed in the morning....but now, I do.  It looks nice, but really, what's the point?  No one EVER sees it but us, and we really don't care (sigh).

Anyhow, here it is, in all it's teensy tiney glory:

This was MY house, I bought it when I was 23 and single....there was no Blake, Molly was not even a twinkle in anyone's eye.  It was the biggest big-girl thing I had ever done, and I did it all on my own (of course, mom, dad, and Steven helped with many home improvement projects, but I did quite a bit of it on my own!).  So a part of me will be really sad to see it go (should it sell) but I know that we are really outgrowing it with baby number two on the way!  

Blake got the call at work today, they are showing it between 12:30 and 1:30 today...I hope it looked good!  I have been working my tail off to get it clean and picking up after Molly every morning is no easy task.  I guess this will be a test of my housewifely abilities! ha!
